The present Boys' Junior School teaching staff consists of twelve full-time teachers, two part-time teachers and four teaching assistants. They are supported by the Deputy Head, as well as one full-time and four part-time secretarial and ancillary staff.

With some 2,500 pupils, Bolton School is a large, thriving, academically selective day school.

It is situated a mile or so from the town centre in a stunning 32 acre campus and is within easy reach of some of the nation's finest cities and countryside.

In Autumn 2021, significant changes were made to the leadership structure of the School Foundation, investing the newly created position of Head of Foundation with overall responsibility.

Within the new structure, there are three sections:
Girls' Division, Boys' Division and Primary Division.

A Head of each Division and the Head of Foundation, together with the Clerk and Treasurer, are the Foundation's Senior Officers; they are directly accountable to the Governors.

Two adjoining and similar buildings, now attached by a state-of-the art Sixth Form Centre, house the Boys' and Girls' Senior Schools, each of which provides a traditional academic education from the age of 11 years.

The Primary Division includes separate Junior Schools for boys and girls from the age of 7 and a co-educational Infant School and Nursery.

Interviews will be held on Thursday 20 June 2024
